Ṛgveda Saṃhitā 4.25.6

RV 4.25.6

सुप्राव्यः प्राशुषाळ् एष वीरः सुष्वेः पक्तिं कृणुते केवलेन्द्रः । नासुष्वेर् आपिर् न सखा न जामिर् दुष्प्राव्यो ऽवहन्तेद् अवाचः ॥

suprāvyaḥ prāśuṣāḷ eṣa vīraḥ suṣveḥ paktiṃ kṛṇute kevalendraḥ | nāsuṣver āpir na sakhā na jāmir duṣprāvyo 'vahanted avācaḥ ||

Devanagari rendered by HREEM from the edition's roman (IAST) text; the IAST is the edition's own.

This Hero curbs the mighty for the zealous: the presser's brew Indra possesses solely: No brother, kin, or friend to him who pours not, destroyer of the dumb who would resist him.
